I’m planning some longer trips once I get a better suited bike for it…right now I have a dr200 but have always loved the classic dr350. With that said EFI for a king trip would be nice but what’s your thoughts on the dr350? I have also thought a dr350 with a lektron or smart carb?
Did you do any suspension upgrade on your DR ? I just refurbished front and back . Its all stock . Im 6ft at 253 already re-geared it . Piped and jetted . The people I got it from over filled the bike with oil and blowen the rings . Just got the top end its a 1990 with 2700 miles on it . I'm hoping its a good trail bike . So, my decision for my future ADV bike I can pick differently .
The entire front end is swapped out with an RM250 which uses cartridge forks and is a big upgrade from the stock suspension, although I believe the 98-99 DR350 model has upgraded forks as well. Great bike, a little heavy but very capable
@mtnmotoadv My DR350s is a 1990 . I just got my new top end kit . We believe the prior owner overfilled the bike with oil . And probably warped the rings . It starts, but it takes about 500 kicking . It's under the required compression rate . But the bike only has 2700 original miles on it . Everything is almost new . Rebuilt carb new O ring chain ,chain guide, cush drive, new sprockets, tires, and tubes . New suspension and new top end . And a new polymer tank cell . New fenders and hoping the bike comes out to be worth all this . Thanks for the front end info .
Have you tried push starting the bike to see if it starts easier? Sometimes my bike can be a little finnicky with the kickstarter but fire right up with the electric start. Rear shock is stock as far as I'm aware
love the DR350, but think you should do more with XL200. (my bike)
yo i was looking for something to watch while eating breakfast and got the notification. love your vids
Hell yeah!! DR350 lives on!
DR still kickin strong!

What's this intro music?! haha. I want to use it. (now I'll continue watching the vid... I miss mountains)
it really sounds like Bach's "Toccata & Fugue"
@@mf_glitch ooh definitely!
